What we will do in this experience
Feel the raw, unfiltered passion of Berlin’s most beloved underdog club—1. FC Union Berlin. This matchday experience takes you deep into the heart of Köpenick, where football is more than a sport—it’s a way of life. Walk through historic streets with a local fan, soak in the pre-game buzz in traditional pubs, and join thousands of loyal supporters as they march to the stadium.
Inside the Alte Försterei, you’ll witness one of the most intense atmospheres in the Bundesliga: no loudspeakers, just pure fan energy—90 minutes of nonstop singing, standing, and living every moment as one.
Led by a local host, you’ll not only watch a game—you’ll become part of a community that rebuilt its stadium with their own hands. Whether you’re a football lover or just curious about Berlin’s beating heart, this experience will stay with you long after the final whistle.
Come for the match. Stay for the soul. Leave Union forever in your heart.
Eisern Union!
